Goran Malmberg is a very talented person. He’s spent the past 60 years making custom guitars where some now reside in the Guitar Museum in Ume\u00e5. He’s also a former Top Fuel fabricator. So it should come at no surprise when he decided to build a 1980 De Tamaso Pantera GT-5, he would combine his skills to build an amazing vehicle called the Hemipanter<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Goran really believes there is no replacement for displacement. So when it came time to pick an engine, he went with a 572 ci (9.38) L HEMI V8. The engine uses an Indy aluminum block, ported aluminum heads, upgraded camshafts, 4.5-inch stroke billet crank, Eagle 7.1-inch steel rods, and custom 4.5-inch pistons. The engine makes 800 horsepower and 900 Nm (663 lb-ft) of torque. <\/p>\n

The engine uses 13.0:1 compression ratio and is fed E85 fuel through Bosch injectors good for 1,000 horsepower. Keeping the engine properly lubricated is a custom six quart oil pan. This is the fourth version of the pan. Goran wanted a pan that could handle 1G in any direction but also fit nicely between the frame rails. <\/p>\n

Goran also improved handling thanks to reinforced chassis, custom front suspension (custom uprights and control arms), and \u00d6hlins adjustable coilovers. Stopping distance was decreased thanks to Nascar-style four-piston calipers and he reduced the car’s weight to 2350 lbs using Lexan windows, fiberglass hoods, and carbon fiber dash. <\/p>\n
